Beginner Handbuilding
Thursdays, 6:30 pm
September 25 – November 13 | Ages 16-99+
Learn the uniquely expressive qualities of clay to create pottery and sculpture. Develop various hand-building techniques including pinching, coiling, and slab-making. Students will create beautifully glazed and fired ceramic ware as they work on teacher-led projects and practices.
Students are required to follow the instructor’s curriculum. Only work produced from that curriculum will be fired.
No makeup classes will be made available in the case of illness or inclement weather.
